Do the work in a thread, use WaitForSingleObject for waiting.

Hi Rodrigo

yes i know that but i meant somthing else.
mu problem is :
im doing two threads.
but if im doing it with sleep() function it take allot of resources,
and the entire application slow down.

maybe you have an idea how it possible to solve without the sleep().
Thanks

Using WaitForSingleObject function you can specify how much time you want to
wait.

Hi Rodrigo,
yes that was my problem because i put on
waitforsingleobject(xx,0) time=0
in do while loop
so all the time the program was busy.
after put a normal time like 10msec it released and evrything works nice.

Thanks
